A "Christian Guide 2 Games" Review of Katamari Damacy causes irony meters across the planet to explode:
"SPIRITUAL CONTENT
Obviously, the Katamari games require that you suspend reality and go with the absurd fantasy premise that the galaxy is run not by God, but by a King of All Cosmos in stretchy pants."

When you die, your deity will yell at you for questioning his stretchy pants. Maybe, if you're rude enough about them, he'll drop-kick your ass to the Lake-O-Fire. If there was a Lake-O-Fire.
I'd think they'd dig the King of All Cosmos - he yells at you and calls you useless and weak and yet you still have to do his bidding.
Seems to fit pretty well...other than the whole rainbows and stretchy pants thing.
Yes, in fact, you do have to suspend reality to play video games, just like you have to suspend reality to believe in your religion.
King of All Cosmos vs. the God of Christianity.
Wears stretchy pants - Wears a robe or toga
Drinks wine - Makes, transubstantiates wine
Sent son to Earth - Ditto
Has good video games made about him - Has bad video games made about him
Arrogant and patronizing - Arrogant and patronizing
Player wants Katamari to crush everything in shortest possible time - Rapture Ready wants God to crush everything in shortest possible time

Well, when you put it THAT way, there's only one thing left to add! If the Prince (of Peace?) rolls someone up in a katamari, that person becomes a part of heaven! It's the rapture!
I now see Katamari Damacy in a whole new light.
So, let me get this straight... You get presented with a kickass game, no violence or anything else (you have nothing to complain about), and you want to quibble over the TITLE of the supreme being? Tell you what, when we atheists complain about a supreme being in the game at all, then you can bring this up. Until then, SHUT UP, IDIOT!
Having said that, this is my new GameFAQs sig. Too damn funny.
Obviously you are not psychologically nor emotionally fit to play, let alone critically review, video games. Just go back to staring at the wall... you still find that fun, right?
::blink.... blink::
Oh, my gods, something in my brain just broke.
Katamari Damashii is a fucking awesome game, especially while stoned!
And if you look at all the reviews, they're childish and regard lack of violence, adult content and anything that defies the Bible an important drawback in the game.
For example:
Devil May Cry 4:
Christian Rating: 1 of 5 (awful)
Gameplay: 5 of 5 (excellent)
Violence: 2 of 5 (heavy)
Adult Content: 1 of 5 (extreme)
That equated to two stars in total.
I know the website is focused on Christianity, but come on.
Who's to say it isn't? The stretchy-pants-wearing King of the Cosmos is exactly as believable as any other deity. So maybe you have your holy books, but does YOUR god have an awesome NAMCO video game?
BTW My god can beat your god on Halo 3 any day.
.... DAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA oh shit my irony meter burst into flames
Somewhat of an unrelated note, as much as that website "reviewed" obscurely popular games like Okami and Persona 3, I've yet to see them review any of the Disgaea games, which is.... really weird. You think that a series in which 80% of the primary characters are demons would get a lot of rage-attention from the fundies. (Hell, the first game has quite a few Christian overtones. I think. o3o; )
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
